I think waiting till the river to checkraise is a mistake here. Additionally, I think his only mistake is the river call. I do play strictly cash games, though.

You may be right. My view at the time was that I was likely to get an extra bet if I let him bet the river. In an hour's play before this hand, I did not see him release the initiative one single time after he'd taken it. Your line may well result in the same outcome, but I think it also gives him a better chance of getting away from the hand, either to the turn raise or the river bet.

I'd be interested to hear your reasoning as to why my line was wrong.
